There's a Blu Ray waiting for me on July 23!

On July 23 of this year the Criterion Collection is going to release a Blu Ray edition of Babette's Feast (1987).  I am more than thrilled at this, as I've been wanting to own a great release of this film for the past several years, and have been to this point unable to find one.

It's a story of a French housekeeper in Denmark (the dialogue is in Danish) who puts on an amazing meal that revolutionizes how many of the people in the village view life.  It's a fantastic tale about hospitality, gourmet food, faith, love, sacrifice, and the miraculous ability for people to have fellowship.

I'm sure I'll do a review in July, after I get my copy!  Until then, here's the appetizer cover art!

(As you can tell, I'm a bit excited.  I've been waiting for this one a long time.)
